I grew up in a small town with few homes/inhabitants. There was a shop on the corner, a post office and a little church. There were also vans/trucks that sold (delivered) milk, fruit and vegetables, bread, boxes of bottles of drinks and also clothes. In order to go to school we had to take the train. In the town there was nothing to do so us kids would go exploring old ruined houses. We would imagine that the houses were haunted. Grazii assai :-)

Hi everyone, I've just returned from bella Sicilia, visiting family. I have a zio that just loves to chat about the old days but unfortunately I can't understand his dialect. Is there anyone here (teacher! tutor or someone learning English) that lives in Sicilia or grew up speaking the dialect?? I would love to learn this dialect to be able to talk with him, he has so much to say and I pick up so little.
grazie Mille :-)
(my relatives live in the province of Trapani, if that helps with Sicilian dialects)
